    Don’t think no exit clause will stop him jumping ship if he gets a chance at Leeds or Sheff Utd, it just means we won’t get a fixed amount of compo

    It does mean we can refuse permission for him to leave though. Time will tell. Should be an interesting few weeks to see how he goes about things anyway.

    Welcome to Oakwell Neill.
    To those slagging him off get down to ground and tell him to his face,he looks a right unit.
    Before anyone as a go I'm joking.

    Welcome to Oakwell Neill. Your record this side of The Pond, even with the Covid intrusion, looks quite impressive.

    I wish you well in trying to bring glory back to the Super Reds with promotion at the end of this season.

    Happy Clapper Alumni Number #1339.

    I don't think there was a cheap option, given that the only other name who was undoubtedly in the frame was another 'unknown' from the Irish league. I think this is more a reflection of the financial realities of where the club needs to operate in League One. The owners put in a lot of money via share capital last season to balance the books, but another season at least in League One means that wage budgets throughout the club will be being adjusted accordingly. The appointment, and likely other candidates, will all have been names who fitted within that structure.

    To be fair I don't mind direct football. If used well when mixing it up, it can be fantastic to watch.

    I appreciate it is my fault, but I've had a difficult day and then this. Obviously I hope he does well but felling absolutely flat and underwhelmed at the moment.

    Given that he's taking charge of Tampa at the weekend does that mean he interviewed over Teams? If so that's another step forward for the club after the Teamsgate issues with JFH.

    In reality every manager has an exit clause be it a specific contractual amount or not. If he wants to go and the other party offer up the value of his contract there's little to stop it.

    Are we sure that Devaney didn't do the interview face to face last week. Its why his return from holiday was delayed...

    Some getting upset he's not had two decent years in charge of mighty Cheltenham town is it a gamble yes but anybody is, if Wilder came he wouldn't have said he would guarantee promotion. Watched that under the cosh interview he did says the best two he played under were big Mick and D Wilson and didn't like non league Nigel so not a bad judge it seems. Only time will tell but i can see the logic to it and wish him all the luck in the world ureds.
